Start a trade war with China. Escalate when they retaliate. Repeat until a near-embargo. Meet to agree on a 90 day pause. Get nervous about that agreement, so re-meet to re-agree to that 90 day pause. As the 90 day pause draws to a close, meet to agree to a 90 day pause.

Step 3. Promise deals
Step 4. Fail to make deals
Step 5. Announce arbitrary tariffs for each country

Sure whatever. 25% tariff on eating ice cream on a hot day next. 50% tariff on petting a dog. 35% tariff on the sound of children laughing. 10% tariff on the smell of flowers. 15% tariff on the cold side of the pillow. And another 25% on China, why not.
